Last Saturday while rock-hreaker

transferred to one of Earl & Co. teams
the tall rope broke and allowed it to
fall on the track. A fiy-wheel was
broken but no costly damage was
done. Bob Stewart says that after that
experience he would advise people
with soft heads to stand from under
when a'sock breaker is swung on the
derrick. Those with hard heads will
stand from under without advice.

Mcssrs Hanson and Montgomery had
made ample preparations tor the enter.

was lacking which would have added
to the enjoyment of the evening. The
supper was excellent and well served
and all arrangements were perfect
The floor of the large dining-room was
in good order and the music under the
direction Of Professors Greenstreet and
Salazar was inspiring.
The success of the experiment has
encouraged the proprietors Of the
Nucleus to decide to give similar en-.
recruitment every month. These dances

win be well patronized as the cost will
be light the principal object not being
to make money but to have good

Sleep n Preventative for Headache
A scientific writer says. asleep, If
taken at the proper moment, will pre-
vent an attack of nervous headache,
If the subjects of such headaches will
watch the symptoms of its coming,
they can notice that it begins with II
feeling of WEAKNESS and heaviness.
This is the time that sleep OF an hour
or even two, ~ nature guides, will
effectually prevent the headache. II
not taken just then it will be too late,
for after the attack is fairly under
way 1t is impossible to get sleep Til
far into the night, perhaps. II is so
common in these days for doctors to
forbid to have their patients walked to
take medicine If they are asleep when
the hour comes round, that the people
have learned the lesson pretty well,
and they generally know that sleep is
better for the sick than medicine. But
it is not so well known that sleep is
such a wonderful preventative of dis.
ease-betier than tonic regulators and
stimulants %

result, Tor it is now stated that the pro-

subject yesterday, stated that the plan
had been considered and the conclu.
